Sparacus had this interesting quote to say concerning the people who tried to kill him: "When Caesar left town and entered the river, and was about to leave, there were many men on the roads who were very anxious to overtake him, as soon as his person was within a man's reach."
It seems Spartacus was a Roman philosopher, not a Roman historian, but a person who liked to criticize history and to debate with people. We have to understand how those who write about Rome got to know him.
We don't know what it is that brought him here, but the fact of the matter is that Rome got to know Spartacus through his writings, and all that, in the last ten years, he has lived with many historians who have looked hard to find anything that will give him credibility.
Take the historical material and look at some of the quotes he used from this time.
